 Israel strikes Iranian capital, western regions, as dozens killed in Gaza
ISRAELI OCCUPIED GAZA, 18 June. - (ANA) - Blasts were heard across the north and east of the Iranian capital Tehran on Wednesday as the Israeli military said it was striking military targets, on the sixth day of the air war between the archfoes.
Video footage shared online showed smoke billowing from targeted areas in Tehran.
It came as Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei described on Wednesday as "unacceptable" an ultimatum from US President Donald Trump calling for the nation's "unconditional surrender," saying his country will never surrender.
The Washington-based group Human Rights Activists said Israel's offensive in Iran has killed at least 585 people and wounded 1,326 others, while Israel says dozens have been killed and hundreds wounded in retaliatory Iranian strikes.
In the Gaza Strip, more than 30 people have been killed including 11 waiting for aid in Israeli strikes and gunfire across the territory since the start of the Wednesday, according to rescuers. - (ANA) -
